Bondi's scramble to blame Blanche for Epstein debacle undermined by ex-DOJ official

Former Attorney General Pam Bondi's attempt to deflect responsibility for the Justice Department's mishandling of the Jeffrey Epstein files has been soundly rejected by a former DOJ official, who emphasized that Bondi was a documented participant in the obstruction from day one — not a passive bystander.In a column for MS NOW, former director of the Justice Department's Office of Public Affairs Anthony Coley dismantled Bondi's Friday testimony before the House Oversight Committee, where she attempted to shift blame to acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and FBI Director Kash Patel."Bondi owns every decision she made as attorney general," Coley wrote. "And before she was ousted by Trump in April, she ran a department that refused to meet with Epstein survivors, stalled disclosure demands and fought transparency even after Congress overwhelmingly ordered it."The most damaging indictment, he wrote, concerns Bondi's treatment of Epstein survivors — women, many victimized as children, who asked for a meeting with the attorney general. Bondi refused, and later refused to even acknowledge their presence at a congressional hearing.Coley pointed out that Bondi found time for a very different kind of meeting. Last November, Rep. Lauren Boebert was summoned to the White House Situation Room — a space normally reserved for matters of national security — where she was pressured not to support a discharge petition that would force a floor vote on disclosing the Epstein files."Survivors can't get a meeting but a GOP member of Congress gets the Situation Room," Coley noted.Even Trump's White House eventually soured on Bondi's personal handling of the files with White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles telling Vanity Fair that Bondi "whiffed on appreciating that that was the very targeted group that cared about this."Wiles was particularly scathing about Bondi's claims regarding the Epstein client list. "First she gave them binders full of nothingness. And then she said that the witness list, or the client list, was on her desk. There is no client list, and it sure as hell wasn't on her desk," Wiles said.That led Coley to write, "Bondi tried to wash her hands of the Epstein files mess in a closed-door interview before the House Oversight Committee on Friday — not on camera and with Todd Blanche’s name ready for every hard question. Don’t be fooled. It was her job to be transparent. And she wasn’t."

Pam Bondi blames Todd Blanche for the mishandling of Epstein files: MS NOW

Ousted Attorney General Pam Bondi deflected responsibility for Epstein files problems during her House Oversight Committee hearing, attributing oversight to current Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. In her opening statement, Bondi claimed the department demonstrated unprecedented transparency and produced everything required under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, while also noting she delegated the document review process to Blanche. MS NOW correspondent Ken Dilanian characterized her testimony as throwing Blanche "under the bus," noting Blanche effectively ran much of the Department of Justice, or DOJ, during Bondi's tenure as attorney general. Dilanian expressed skepticism about why the committee questioned Bondi rather than Blanche, suggesting Bondi functioned largely as a figurehead while her former deputy handled significant departmental responsibilities regarding the Epstein investigation.Watch the video below.

DOJ moves to oust judge embroiled in sex scandal from key Trump voter rolls case

The Department of Justice is demanding that an embattled Georgia judge be taken off its case seeking to grab voter rolls, according to reporting by Reuters.U.S. District Judge Eleanor Ross in Atlanta was in the headlines earlier this week after news outlets identified her as the unnamed judge reprimanded for having sex in her chambers within earshot of clerks. The DOJ is seeking her removal from the case because she attended a political campaign event for Fani Willis, who prosecuted Trump for alleged crimes related to the 2020 election, Reuters noted. "A judge who attended a party celebrating the election of a Democrat best known for prosecuting a Republican President for alleged election interference cannot then preside over a case concerning that President's efforts to ensure election integrity," DOJ lawyers wrote, according to Reuters. Ross is hearing the DOJ's lawsuit seeking to force Georgia to hand over its non-public voter registration list. The DOJ filed similar lawsuits in other states, though it's been defeated in some.

Rookie prosecutor behind high-profile revenge indictment quietly removed from case: report

The Department of Justice rookie prosecutor who's been leading the effort to charge former FBI Director James Comey stepped off the case, NBC News reported. Matthew Petracca, an assistant U.S. attorney, brought the case to a federal grand jury for the second indictment against Comey because of his sheashell photo. NBC News found in a court filing that Petracca is no longer on the case, per a court filing.The office of the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of North Carolina, where Petracca worked, requested that he "be removed from the court's docket as counsel for the government," the two-page filing stated, without offering details. According to NBC News, Assistant U.S. Attorney Timothy Severo will take over in his place. Petracca recently left other criminal cases in the Eastern District of North Carolina, and a substitute also handled a recent interaction with Comey's defense team, per NBC News. Petrecca didn't respond to NBC News' request for comment.

Republicans en masse skip Pam Bondi's Epstein hearing

House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) was the sole Republican lawmaker present during a closed-door interview with former Attorney General Pam Bondi regarding the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. According to MS NOW, the atmosphere was tense, with Bondi appearing frustrated during questioning. Rep. Melanie (D-NM) Stansbury criticized her Republican colleagues' absence, noting that, despite their stated commitment to justice for survivors, none traveled to attend the important interview. The questioning focused on redactions, withholding, and Ghislaine Maxwell's prison sentence. Legal experts suggest Republicans may have strategically scheduled the interview during congressional recess to limit tough questioning from their own party members, potentially to avoid pursuing additional subpoenas for current Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and FBI Director Kash Patel.Watch the video below.
